Freehold Coastal Motel with lifestyle appeal & growth upside - Townsville Region

This freehold coastal motel offers a rare blend of property ownership, lifestyle appeal and genuine business upside in North Queensland's undersupplied short-stay market. Positioned on 1,814 sqm backing onto pristine bushland and beachfront at Balgal Beach, just 35 minutes from Townsville, the nine-room operation currently achieves 70% occupancy with consistent year-on-year growth, delivering in circa 11% return on investment, with opportunity to improve. The business attracts loyal repeat holiday guests and trade workers, benefiting from limited local competition and strong regional infrastructure investment.

Meticulously maintained by the current owner-operators, the property features a fully renovated two-bedroom owner's residence, an eight-vehicle carport, hardwired Wi-Fi throughout, and comprehensive soft refurbishment, including new king beds, televisions, and lounge suites in every unit. Operating efficiently as a two-person business without additional staff requirements, this turnkey opportunity provides immediate income security with clear pathways to enhanced returns through modest tariff increases and targeted occupancy growth.

For hands-on operators seeking control of both business and property in a tightly held coastal location, this represents an exceptional acquisition. Contact Resort Brokers today to arrange your confidential inspection.
